Schliesing 200MX Wood Chipper

[Ty Korrigan]

just sold mine.

 

560hrs.

 

2005 machine.

 

10k

 

no other machine would hold its value like that.

 

paint work was not great but no worse than any of the other machines imo

 

55 hours a year...?

You only work weekends or what?

Had mine for 4 months now, bought a refurb from masons painted up and all. So far it's been the best thing i've used! Having never had previous with them.

I nearly got a gm 150 : /

Lucky escape there then

I think they're unnecessarily heavily built for a 6" machine (though I'm sure that's an advantage for a ≥10" machine fed by a crane/digger). They work but not much (if any) better than an equivalent Timberwolf. Good rollers and crushing but I'm still not sure any better than Timberwolf. Good but not as good as the reputation. This is from using them but not owning, buying, selling, maintaining etc.

Head and shoulders above TW, IMO.

 

Their reputation is very well deserved, IMO, fantastic chippers.

True it's a heavy machine! 1150kg! Though such a solid machine. A 230tw would chip more aggressively and quicker but the argument over sub 750kg chippers is justified I feel. I would happily take a lesser perfoming chipper that was solid and reliable over a lighter machine..... another thing it being a 28hp engine it relys on the over sized parts to do the work. My 200mx is incredible on fuel where as i've gotten through 25ltrs easily using 150dhb in a day.

Have you used the small ones as well as the bigger ones on your (very powerful) mog?

My experience of using these machines is completley different. I have owned both of these machines and would say that the schliesing is far superior and will chip more twisty thorn type branches at ease compared to the timberwolf. If you were to be chipping straight poles then yes the timberwolf may be better on such an occasion.
